·I'm putting up for sale my 18k yellow gold Omega Constellation Deluxe, reference 168.010/11, powered by the automatic cal. 564. I wrote about this one when I originally bought it, and got some good feedback from the forum. Since then, I got it a nice strap and sent it for a service. Selling because I got a couple of other gold watches and this is getting no wrist time. It's a pity because it's a beautiful watch.
Included is an alran all black slim leather strap from Tuns, sized at 130/80mm with a 16mm generic buckle.
Case Reference: 168.010/11
Movement: Cal. 564, 24 Jewels, Automatic, 50 hours of reserve, 19800 bph
Year of production: 1967
Width: 35mm (without crown), 36.5mm (with crown)
Lug to lug: 40mm
Thickness: 10.5mm
Lug width: 19mm
Box and papers: No
Price
Price is €2,400 net to me. I accept: Bank Transfer, Payoneer, or PayPal (Friends and Family).
Trade
I'm open to trades with any Omega(s). No specific preference at this moment. Let me know what watch(es) you have and what you value them.
Shipping
I am located in Tirana, Albania (not a member of the EU). Shipping worldwide with DHL, which should cost between €30-€50 depending on location. Watch will be shipped within 2 working days after payment is cleared. Will be able to help minimize import taxes on request.
Returns
No returns unless the watch is grossly misrepresented.
Feedback
I've been a relatively active member since September 2023, have introduced myself, and have bought a couple of things. I can provide any form of identification that suits you: ID, LinkedIn profile, Facebook, etc. Here's my reviews as a seller.
Condition
The following is me doing my best to describe what I see with the watch in hand, looking at the close up photos, and inspecting it under a 12x loupe. I'll cover any defect I can see, but please also inspect the photos yourself and let me know if you have any questions.
Dial is a gold-colored dome. More noticeable are a light scratch on the center spanning about 3mm, and another close to the 2 o'clock marker. There's random tiny spots here and there. Applied logos and letters look clean and printing is sharp and intact. Indices with what may be onyx (?) inlays appear very clean. Hands have a bit of fading, while the seconds hand has tiny spots.
Case is in decent condition, but appears to have been polished. The lugs aren't as crisp as they originally were. Case back has a bunch of idiot marks, but the profile looks good and the observatory stamp is sharp. Crown is a replacement, as the original hidden crowns are a hell to find.
Movement is in good shape. There's some discoloration and tool marks here and there. Maybe a bit of rotor rub marks, but nothing crazy. The photos below are before I sent it for a service, which shouldn't make any difference. The only visible change is that my watchmaker removed the one-use plastic (?) red gasket and replaced it with a generic rubber one. Not sure what difference it does make in water resistance.
Strap is barely used. It's a decent quality ($42 from Tuns) and should fit any wrist if you decide to keep it.

Service
Service consisted of a full disassembly, cleaning and oiling. No parts were replaced. There are no Omega certified watchmakers in my country, so this is more of a maintenance service than a full service.
The following results were measured by me with the watch in full wind using a Weishi 1000 and lift angle set at 52 degrees. I left the watch for about a minute to stabilize in each position.
